Episode Synopsis "Stoicism: How to Change the World But Keep Your Conscience Clear"

Do we need to give up on changing our world for the better if we're going to live a philosophic life?  Stoicism demands adherents abandon ego, thoughts of fame, and, most importantly, that they act with courage, justice, wisdom, and moderation. Rising to power and influence usually involves getting your hands dirty, so we might think a Stoic changemaker would quickly abandon virtue. Power corrupts, the saying goes, and at the very least, it seems to inflate egos. So how did Stoic leaders manage to find a different path? In this episode, we explore how Stoics take impactful action while keeping their values intact. 🚀 Get Breakthrough Week for free. 📝 View the show notes & transcript. 🎥 Watch on Youtube:
